Winter Cereal Yields 'Disappointing'

The winter cereals harvest is nearly complete.
 
Doug Martin is secretary with the Manitoba Crop Alliance.
 
"The winter wheat was a little disappointing as far as yields go," he said. "In that 60 to 70 bushel [range] is kind of what I've heard. Lack of early spring rains to help stimulate growth and move the fertilizer down did some impact on it. It's probably yielding simaliar to what the hard red spring [wheat] is."
 
Martin says fall rye yields were variable depending on rainfall amounts.

Video: Demco Dual Aguer Grain Carts — Fire Safety Systems, Right or Left-Handed Unload, and More!


Demco's dual auger grain cart is designed for unloading efficiency, operator visibility, and safety in the field.

This dual-auger design features both an unload auger and a floor auger for enhanced grain cleanout and consistent flow, and the 22-inch unload auger is capable of moving up to 600 bushels per minute.

Farmers can also choose between right or left-handed unload options—right-handed unload improves visibility from the tractor cab. A new design allows both vertical and horizontal movement for precise grain placement during unloading.

Another key feature is the built-in fire safety system; a 300-gallon onboard water tank with a hose reel that provides field-ready fire suppression capability.

These dual auger grain carts are available in 1100, 1300, 1500, 1700, and 2200 bushel sizes.
